A Genuine Focus on Our Relationship

Even before I met Ryan through my partner, Rob, who was Ryan’s soccer coach at Denison University, I was well-aware of Ryan’s integrity, character and knowledge. Rob spoke so highly of Ryan and it’s because of these qualities—and more—that Ryan “coaches” us.

Since deciding to work with Ryan, I’ve been struck by Ryan’s sincere interest in me personally—my profession, hobbies, and our family. He is authentic in his approach to building a relationship and earning trust. And on top of Ryan’s quality character, his entire team’s focus on client service is really extraordinary. They are impressive, have a genuine focus on our relationship, and provide a very personal approach to our interactions. I appreciate the very personal touch from Ryan and his team’s interactions with us.

Ryan and the others at The Granville Investment Group also work to create a community of its clients with group events and activities where we can interact with each other. And as they work to continually meet the needs of their clients, they established a client advisory committee. I served on the committee and can say that Ryan and the team are very open to input and insight. They value expertise and want to know what YOU truly value.

When it came time for me to really start planning my retirement, we met with Ryan several times to determine the best timing, our financial position and continued investment strategy. It is a little unnerving to think about not having an income anymore. With Ryan’s knowledge and the time he took to understand my retirement goals, together we developed a strategy for financial independence so Rob and I can enjoy our retirement years. Ryan helped us determine a plan that will work for us and helped us to feel comfortable with the details. He also recommended other professionals such as tax attorneys and insurance agents who can be key to our success going forward.
